Probably nothing
 
I have a 91 turbo and my radiator light comes on occasionally. Does yours go off after driving? I have looked all through the haynes manual and can not find anything about this light or what causes it. My car is a daily driver and I have never had any overheating problems or anything.

same thing here, the radiator light comes off when im driving but it comes back on and off after a while the manual says its just low on coolant but i already filled it up yesterday and still the same thing and do you know how to turn the taillight waring off?

Radiator sensor
 
That sensor light is for the overflow resevoir, which needs to be kept half full. Sometimes if its low and you make a tight turn it sets it off (IMO). If the res keeps going low, you have a coolant problem somewhere in the system. That has been my experience.

definitely a problem if it keeps getting low and/or if it fulls up by itself
empting means it's losing fliud somewhere in the system either you are burning it in the engine or it's leaking .filling up on it's own is another symptom of coolant system problem. i'd start to take serious note of how much water you are using . I drove my supra for several thousand miles with these symptoms and the end result is not good . BHG is what I'm hinting
